There is no Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day only Zuul.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Pic!
In a bit of double Rick Moranis love we jump from Strange Brew to Ghostbusters. Sadly, today’s picture does not feature Moranis, but it does feature the gatekeeper to his keymaster, one Ms. Sigourney Weaver.
This part of the movie, when poor Sigourney is essentially turned into the gatekeeper, was always the part that scared me as a kid. There’s something about your furnature sprouting demon hands that 8 year olds don’t take a shine to. At least this on didn’t. Between this scene and the creepy as all fuck corpse taxi driver there was just enough scary in Ghostbusters to make it feel really edgy, like I was getting away with something watching it.
I bet some of you guys want to start joining up with film crews after seeing what these lucky bastards got to do, dontcha? Enjoy the pic.

Tomorrow’s behind the scenes pic wants the bitches to leave.

This scene shit me up as a nipper too.
-
Who is with me?
-
..her I.U.D. popped out!
-
Is it wrong that when I first saw Ghostbusters in the theater the only thing I could think about in this scene was "Oh my god. Someone is totally touching Sigourney Weaver's boob!"
-
They go up.
-
He will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

Freeze frame this scene on Blu-Ray and you see her tit pop out
by ndally
Seriously go frame by frame of that scene that her tit totally makes a cameo for seconds. Nipple etc. Sorry I don't have exact time or even a screen shot but it's there. Btw GB2 totally needs deleted scenes and pronto. They have at least 7 scenes with finished FX that were cut. Both GB1 and GB2 were filmed on extremely tight schedules(GB2 was still doing reshoots in April of '89 for a early June release) and if you have the time check out an article with Denis Muren where he states that GB2 was the hardest film he's ever done FX due to the time constraints. It's crazy. GB2 gets not love and i find it fucking great and it seems little by little I keep hearing people(on this site) say that GB2 is pretty good. So if u haven't seen GB2 in years pop it in and enjoy. Sure not quite as good as GB1 but damn Janosz Poha it's fucking brilliant character. Nice pick Quint

Check mate, friends.

Ray: "Everything would have been fine if dickless here hadn't shut off the main power grid!" Walter Peck: "These men caused an explosion!" Mayor: "Is this true?" Peter Venkman: "Yes, it's true... this man has no dick."

Aliens couldn't do it, but Gozer could.

GB2 needs and extended or recut. These legend Deleted scenes must be seen
by ndally
To include all these awesome deleted scenes. It also needs a commentary track cause the GB1 commentary is great. Reitman and Ramis sound like they are smoking a joint(they sound high and you hear the odd cough from time to time). Btw Help move GB2 up the imdb rating. Its currently at 6.2/10 which is insane so if you love GB2 or even just think it's just OK go to imdb and rate it above the insulting 6.2/10(a year or so ago it was @ 5.9/10 so people are slowly appreciating this under rated comedic powerhouse). The only shifty parts are the weak ending and the over use of montage and the Elmer Bernstein-less score(replaced by Randy Eldman and RUN DMC)

Go to IMDB to increace GB2's 6.2/10 rating. It deserves much better
by ndally
It's made progress like I said earlier but it needs to be over 7.0/10 at least. Last year it was 5.9/10. Please get it higher. Also I personally think that GB1 is under rated on that site since it's only got a 7.8/10. Now I really love Back to the Future but it shouldn't be placed higher than Ghostbusters. Common folks get out and vote. See if we can put these classics higher up on the imdb rating system. Alot of people use that as a guide so we need more people who discover the genius of GB2. Seriously how can you not like that movie?..some people il never understand
-
We are finally getting a Robocop BTS picture tomorrow? Love this film, i remember having the crap scared out of me when the librarian screamed and this moment.
-
Bill Murray sells that line like a fucking comedy ninja. Tears rolling down my cheeks funny. Ghostbusters owns. And the Elmer Bernstein score is jizz-tastic.
-
Ghostbusters has so many epic quotes.
-
ghostbusters when she becomes the gatekeeper, smoking hot and dirty sexy. even bald alien 3 ripley was bangable. good work clemens cholera? there hasn't been a case of cholera for fifty years.
-
Tomorrow - SWEET !
-
"What's that got to do with it?" "Back off, man... I'm a scientist." Bill Murray, takin' you to comedy school, every goddamn scene in this movie.
-
"You can KEEP the five bucks!" "I will, mister!"

the suspension of disbelief that always bugged me the most in GB1...
by TheSeeker7
Speaking of Moranis, was when he's chased and taken down by the one demon (or bear, cougar, and dog, all of which it's called at different points lol). He approaches the upscale restaurant, leaning right up against the glass catching the attention of every patron, and the demon gets close enough physically to take him down (and I suppose commence possessing him) but the demon is completely unseen thru that by all the patrons (& even us the audience). Completely unrealistic!! :p lol
-
it just turned cartoony in the way the ghosts looked and negative slime? That shit is still gay and always will be.
-
Yeah, the librarian turning into claymation in GB1 wasn't cartoony at all. It's funny, GB2 seems to get heavily criticized for elements that were on full display in the first movie.

Those are very wise words by a very missed actor. I wish he would come out of retirement.
-
it was to the 90's what GB was to the 80's. whatever the fuck that means
-
they like it bi-sexual and they like it rough...
-
im there
-
...or does it look that the events depicted in this picture have caused her to shit her pants?
-
I walked up to the Ghostbusters years ago at Universal Florida and did the Gozer the traveler spiel. The gave me a strange look.
-
"Ok, who brought the dog?"
-
The fridge is the scariest part to me. The nightmares were recurring and about Stay-Puft.
-
oh crap, that 's Zulu...oh well, no one will read this
-
knew what it was to be roasted in the pit of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

One of the funniest Rick Moranis scenes in Ghostbusters...
by Nasty In The Pasty
...is when he gets locked out of his apartment and screams "Somebody LET ME IH-HIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!" with the scream cut off by Sigourney Weaver shutting her door. Cracks me up every time. What DID happen to Rick Moranis, anyways? It's been like fifteen years since the last time he was in a movie.
-
Go Robo! :-P
-
She has no boobs to speak of. Top Tip:if you want to see what she would look like with boobs, Galaxy Quest is the one to see.
-
anytime Venkman and Barrett are together, these awful music cues ruin it all. It frustrates me and i can't ignore it. it takes the rest of the film down a notch, even though i love much of the film. I just find the stuff so obnoxious i don't want to subject myself to it
-
With THAT scene in it? Still keeps me up fucking nights, and I'm 33 next week!

Also, how the FUCK did the "Wayne's World" movies get PG ratings...
by ChickenStu
Whenever they see an attractive girl in those movies, they say "schwing" and perform a faux- sexual thrust to accompany it! I remember when I saw "Wayne's World 2". Garth did that "schwing" thing... the friend I was with leant over to me and said "This is a PG, right?" WTF.

GB1 has a great mythology with extradimensional gods and stuff
by David Cloverfield
And had ordinary, working class joes react to the lovecraftian horror, who's jobs just happened to be dealing with this kind of shit. And somehow they managed to place this story organically into our 80's. That script is solid. GB2 had none of that. Still not a terrible movie, but middle aged men in jumpsuits wisecracking to a shapeshifting alien god who just entered our world through a shining gate and blocked out the sun... is a lot more fun than men in jumpsuits riding the Statue of Liberty to crush a eurotrash ghost in a painting. One is comedy gold the other is a cartoon (a fun cartoon, but a cartoon.). Then again I can't see how you can top the finale of GB1. When I was a kid I was convinced the end of the world can come at any moment and would look exactly like that. "Gozer the Gozerian... good evening. As a duly designated representative of the City, County and State of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension."
-
But except Egon, they behave blue collar.
-
"Sorry, this just isn't your lucky day!" Best introduction scene ever. You immediately know everything there is to know about Venkman, it's Bill Murray at his very best.

I didn't know movie studios hired master gropers! Are they union?
by MrMysteryGuest
-
went from nice and perky in 1979, to genuine full-scale funbags in 1986.
-
Yes, have some.
-
Thats the joke nobody gives a shit.
-
there were internet rumours that he died in a car accident, but i'm pretty sure he's still alive he just doesn't act anymore
-
Following the death of his wife in 1991, the difficulty of raising their two children on his own, and his increasing disenchantment with Hollywood, Moranis retired from acting in 1997. He had intended the retirement to be a sabbatical of a couple of years, but later realized that he didn't miss the pressure. He still does occasional voice work.

Listen, that reminds me, you shouldn't leave your TV on so loud when you go out. The creep down the hall phoned the manager.

You know what I did? I climbed on the ledge and tried to disconnect the cable, but I couldn't get in, so you know what I did? I turned my TV up real loud too so everyone would think all our TVs had something wrong with them… * S L A M *

Sigourney Weavers Tits are in full view in "Half Moon Street"
by Wilford_Brimleys_Diabetes_Rage
Hell the best part of the movie is Sigourney riding an excercise bike topless while a Palestinian dude takes pictures...Quint where's that BTSPOD
-
When Sigourney takes off her pants you know a monster's about to appear.
-
He's very much alive and still does things from time to time. Besides voice work for Brother Bear, he and Dave did a Bob and Doug McKenzie 24th Anniversary special for the CBC (2-4, get it?),and he did a country album (really!). Guess when Bob said at the end of "Take Off" that he'd do a solo album, he meant it!
-
Did you smell that?
-
"is that a trick question?"
-
"What a crime!"
-
Your dissection of why GB1 works and GB2 misses is spot on. Thank you for writing it, so I didn't have to.
-
Take her to dinner, we don't want to lose her. Um...this magnificent feast represents the LAST of the petty cash. ......Hey, slow down, chew your food.
-
on the cushion is where an arm comes out in the movie. Still remember this shot from an ol' Cinefex.
-
It's not even ON blu, for fucks sake :(
-
But when that cast reads them.....pure gold.
-
I was eating dinner in NYC in 1997 on my only visit there thus far. Rick Moranis walked in front of the restaurant window, stood and paused. After being at the fountain where Bill Murray does the spinning gag earlier in the day, I really felt a connection to ghostbusters that tday.

I'm with darth pigman ,ghostbusters 2 needs a new DVD edition with tons of extras.......
by Father
I dont understand why ghostbusters 2 doesnt get a lavish DVD release - the film was a hit and a lot of people like it, theres an audience for a new ghostbusters 2 DVD filled wth extras like deleted scenes (which DO exist by the way ) , directors commentary and other goodies. Ghostbusters 2 gets a lot of shit but i dont think its as bad as everyone suggests- i mean its no way as good as the original but its still an entertaining film in its own right and if the fucking monster squad can get a extras-packed DVD release then so can ghostbusters 2.

Gee, I think all I got is this cedacelacytic acid. Generic. See, I can get six hundred tablets of that for the same price as three hundred of the name brand. Makes good financial sense. Good advice.
by Amazing Maurice
Hey, this is real smoked salmon from Nova Scotia, Canada, $24.95 a pound. It only cost me $14.12 after tax, though. I'm giving this whole thing as a promotional expense. That's why I invited clients instead of friends. You having a good time, Marv? How ya doing? Why don't you have some of the Brie? It's at room temperature! You think it's too warm in here for the Brie?
-
"We came, we saw, we KICKED ITS ASS!" "Dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria!" "I'll go over to Ms. Barret's apartment and check her out......I'll check out Ms. Barret's apartment." I could go on and on.
-
"Do I?" "Yes, have some." "Yes, have some!!"
-
"On a more personal note let me just go on record as saying that there is no place for fakes, charlatans, or tricksters like you in decent society! YOU play on the gullibility of innocent people! If my hands weren't tied by the unalterable fetters of the law, then I would invoke the tradition of our illustrious forebears! Reach back to a pruer, sterner justice and have you BURNED AT THE STAKE!!!"
-
No believe me I totally get the joke, that nobody cares, what I was talking about is that we literally can't see the demon dog, the audience or the patrons (as we share the same POV, basically), it looks like he's out there by himself, and that always kinda bugged me, it made no sense.
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vwdlGzEjs4&feature=related#t=3m27s Says everything that needs to be said about GB2. Specifically, that it's AWESOME.
-
They hate this.
-
Janine: Do you believe in U.F.O.s, astral projections, mental telepathy, E.S.P., clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full-trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster, and the theory of Atlantis?<p>Winston: Lady, If there's a steady paycheck in it, I'll believe anything you say<p> And you guys are right, the lines are dry but they clean up in the delivery by the actors, that's why Bill Murray owned in this movie. He delivered his lines like enjoyed every delicious bite!
-
At least until they took away the pointy glasses and changed her voice.
-
I imagine someone who has never seen the movie thinking how stupid the lines sound. But every one is priceless. Not just Murray, either. Moranis is the unsung genius of the movie. Aykroyd pulls his considerable weight as well. Then there are the ghosts. The puppeteers behind Slimer were brilliant. The way his arm dangles as he's uselessly chugging the wine, the way he hurtles across the bar fleeing the streams. Just watching him move is a riot.
-
There was an episode (written by J Michael Strazinski, I believe) where they realize Janine has been changed and their memories of her for the past season altered.
-
of gals like Jolie,Theron,etc but her infinite,sexy legs compensate for that, which is perfectly showcased in GB1 here: http://bit.ly/hL81qR i am pretty sure Big Jim has made his moves on her in Aliens.heh.
-
now thats a demonized woman i would like to bang :P
-
That bugged me a little, but what REALLY bugged me? How come it WASN'T Edgar J. Hoover that came and tried to destroy them? I mean Venkman thought of him and went so far as to say his name. Hoover should have beat Stay Puft. (Hoover may have been funnier as well, but I digress.)
-
His score is so cutesy for the baby and the romantic scenes. Absolutely terrible. Makes the sequel feel like it's in a different universe than the first one.
-
Demonized Sigourney was sexy as hell. "Okay. So? She's a dog." Not so.
-
....for obviously going up before I get back from work. That's total bullshit. BITCHES LEAVE!
-
There has been much quoting. And what grand quoting it is.<p> <p>That's gotta be some cockroach.
-
You'll have to have a full wide screen version but while he's being tuna dipped by the demon hands someone pulls her sweater down and you see her brown tip poke free for just a second saying "hello"

This movie has so many throwaway lines that would be legendary in lesser comedies...
by SK229
And I don't think Judd Apatow or really any of the newer comedy directors could EVER make something like Ghostbusters, Stripes, or Trading Places. Every one of those movies finds humor in EVERYTHING... not just dick and marijuana jokes. The 'nearest CONVENIENT parallel dimension' line is my fave... they don't want Gozer to go through too much trouble getting to wherever she needs to go. I also love Louis' scene at the party... "Hey everybody, this is Ted and Annette Fleming, Ted has a small carpet cleaning business in receivership and Annette's drawing a salary from a deferred bonus from two years ago! They got fifteen thousand left on the house at eight percent. So they're okay! I BELIEVED that shit when I was a kid and wanted to know what he was talking about. 20 something years later... I'm an accountant. No, just kidding, I'm a tv editor. That and his line about the acetysacilic acid getting 600 for 300 of the name brand. Fuck me, what a great movie...
